Frequently Asked Questions
What documents do I need to apply for a 1st Franklin loan?
As part of the process, we will need a few documents to secure your loan. You’ll need valid identification, such as driver’s license, social security card or birth certificate, proof of address such as utility or phone bill, voter registration card or mortgage statement, and verifiable income such as paystub, tax return or bank statement.
What loan amounts do you offer?
1ˢᵗ Franklin Financial offers loans up to $15,000. Our Premier Loans are available up to $10,000.

Nice ladies in the office. However I was not properly explained all the stipulations pertaining to my loan.
A few months ago one of the girls called me to see if I would like to borrow anymore money to which I asked how much I had left on my current loan amount.
She informed me that after paying $500 every month for nearly a year on a loan of $11000 I currently owed $10500. Perplexed I asked how this was possible and for the first time I was informed that by paying my monthly payment before the due date (a practice I believed to be very responsible) I was subjecting myself to a separate interest rate. I was never told this until this phone call. I was quite disappointed by the misfeasance I had just uncovered.
I have since been in contact with and opened a case with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to shed light on this practice.
I would not recommend your company and have advised many to stay away and have been happy to hear from past friends and acquaintances that they read my Google review of my experience and saved them from a similar experience
